I think most people cpmmenting are missing the scope. It is not quill job to decide if pirates shortage cause global warming, really, all it does is making data readable, as it seems. When it says "pirate number negatively correlates with average temperature" instead of two number columns, its job is over. It is up to reader to decide what that means, if anything. AI is not your scifi movies, people.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53bcc1876bb3f75814c537f3ken9999Wed, 09 Jul 2014 00:13:59 -0400http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53bcc1876bb3f75814c537f3
Beyond VERY simple spreadsheets this is utter nonsense.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53bbf2f469bedd1b2e5147b8c1c2c3c4cTue, 08 Jul 2014 09:32:36 -0400http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53bbf2f469bedd1b2e5147b8
It's a fake product only meant to get invested the basis is flawed. Classic example: Pirates and global warming, to the human any link is seen as coincidental but to the machine there is a direct link in that the fewer pirates are sinking ships the hotter the earth becomes. And thus your report would read "be cool, become a pirate."
The data presented has little context and even if it did the computer had no concept of what a pirate is or hot for that matter...
Btw anyone else notice the writer removed most comments.... Kind of suspicious.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53bb995deab8eac8343445abjerimy123Tue, 08 Jul 2014 03:10:21 -0400http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53bb995deab8eac8343445ab
It will be interesting how this will play out in the future.
The way our economy is structured, a few people will make loads of money while the rest of humanity becomes obsolete over time. It is already happening. Capitalism is slowly but surely killing it self.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53bb8a446da811d47f8b4570mikkokotilaTue, 08 Jul 2014 02:05:56 -0400http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53bb8a446da811d47f8b4570
This technology sounds very interesting and I look forward to learning more about it. Based on this article though, a very narrow view of the data scientist is provided. Which is not surprising as that is role only starting to emerge. I believe that AIs will play an important role in the future of mostly anything we do, but not in the way where we are entirely replaced by it. You can get the machine probably do a lot more than a single person could ever do, already now, but when the machine steps up, the man steps as well.
In that light, it is probably more productive if we talk less about replacing, and more about co-existing. Less about how the machine will do something better than the man, and more clearly about how the man will do even better empowered with the machine. Obviously that is a far more boring (and likely) proposition, than man slaving robots that will eat up the earth.
It is exactly like Mr.Hammond also says above, once the machine is as good of a consultant as we are now, we'll be on a whole new level. But we don't have to wait for that anymore, it is already happening. World is filled with machines doing various consultative assignments at a far higher level of valuable output than their human counterparts were 20-30 years ago.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53bb85aeecad043568ef3446If you need AI to tell you a story...Tue, 08 Jul 2014 01:46:22 -0400http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53bb85aeecad043568ef3446
...spreadsheets are not your problem.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53bb71f469beddc7118b4568jamesxxxxxxxTue, 08 Jul 2014 00:22:12 -0400http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53bb71f469beddc7118b4568
I significantly doubt it.
Utter, fantastical BS.
Spreadsheets do not have context, they have no fucking clue what is in the data.
----> I a have a spreadsheet of the probability distribution of n-length words across languages. Can your Quill explain to me how this affects word predictability in a language model?
No?
I have a place for you to stick your Quill ...http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53bb22ae6bb3f75f41ef3444Jason SparksMon, 07 Jul 2014 18:43:58 -0400http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53bb22ae6bb3f75f41ef3444
Brilliant concept! I can imagine that data can be "interpreted" a in more than one way by Quill's programming opening scope for bias, or is that Quill's personality?
